Shenmue 3 In Development For PS4 According To Alleged Leaked Image

An image that has appeared online suggests that Shenmue 3 could be in development for PS4. With E3 just around the corner, it doesn’t take a genius to work out that a tease for Shenmue 3 is an easy troll and, for that reason, we’re pretty skeptical about the truth of the rumour (though, of course, we’d love it to be true).

According to Games Talk, who published the image, Square Enix, in partnership with Sega, will release an HD remaster of the first two Shenmue games and follow that up with a proper sequel in the form of Shenmue 3.

As you can see in the images below, the jacket in the teaser appears to be that of Shenmue protagonist Ryo Hazuki. The three petals in the image have one, two and three slits in them respectively, hence the idea that there will be a third Shenmue.

If we had to put money on it, we’d say the images are fake, though we’d love to believe!
